Competitive Advantage short story cover, draft #3

Hmmm.

Definitely need to switch out that weapon, don't we?

I guess we could say her armor is aluminum, which would be better protection than nothing and a hell of a lot lighter than bronze...

What do you guys think?

*Note - this will be for a short story with characters you guys have never seen before.

Competitive Advantage short story cover, draft #1

This is the first choice I had to make until we got to the first actual draft.

Artist 2 - Mareen concept sketch - draft 1

Very interesting interpretation, here.  The artist chose to deviate a lot from the canon Delvers art.

Not gonna lie - I kinda dig Henry's new weapon here.

Artist 1 - Aodh concept sketch - final

What do you guys think?  I think this is really rad.  His dagger is in the wrong place, but it's cool to see, here.

Artist 1 - Aodh concept sketch - draft 1

Work has officially started on creating visuals for all the main character!  I hired two artists to give different takes on the characters and I will be curious to see what you all think!

This is the first draft of Aodh by Artist 1.

New art announcement!

A lot of folks have been asking for visuals of X character, especially Aodh.

I am thinking about commissioning character art for all the major characters and some of the side characters too!  My art patrons need more cool stuff, imo.

Stay tuned for more information.

Crappy week for writing

Hey guys.  I'm sorry there hasn't been an update yet this week.  I'm shooting for 2 or 3 this weekend.

This has just been a terrible week for writing.  The #1 culprit is my regular job.

I'm really looking forward to when I can go full time.  I'm sure you all are too.

Luckily, I just took a long nap, it's the weekend, and I'm fired up (and hungry).  I do my best writing while guzzling coffee and shoving food into my face.  So...once more into the...

Quick status update

Hey all.  I'm a little frustrated that I haven't been able to keep up my fiendish writing pace.  A combination of my regular job and a random spike of depression got in the way.

Unfortunately, I am an extroverted writer and I can only create when I'm relatively happy.  Sometimes I wish I was more of the tortured artist type who can just hide away in a closet somewhere and churn out books, but that is not how I'm wired.

Anyway, I just took this picture to show you wha...

Patreon goal met!

You guys are awesome!  The first goal I posted ages ago has been met!

This is both good and bad news.  It's good news because now I am obligated to post regularly, but it's bad news because I'm already doing that.

lol

The only way I could write faster at this point is if I can quit my regular job - hence the new goal.

But I believe we will get there!  I truly do.

And I seriously look forward to the future when 3 chapter releases a week will be no...

Massively increasing writing speed

Hey all!  I'm trying hard to get Delvers 3 out the door, so I'm really focusing on writing.  To do so, I've even been buying snacks that help me feel creative, like surume! I got some directly from Japan today in the mail.  The one in the pic has been partially devoured.

I want to take this opportunity to thank all of your for your patronage.  You inspire me...and kick me in the ass to stay productive!  I really appreciate it, and I super appreciate all of your co...

7/6 productivity hiccup

Hey all!  I have some bad news.  I had to go to the ER, so I can't type well for at least a couple days.  I don't think I will have a chapter up before Sat.

Ramping up writing

Hi all!  This is just a quick FYI that I'm ramping up my writing.  I'm putting some other projects on the back burner so I can get Delvers 3 done faster.  This is going to be a really long book.

...but hopefully awesome.

I should have a new chapter up by Wednesday.

Working on Chapter 8

Hey all

I'm sorry to come to you with my hat in my hands like this, but I wanted to explain the delay on chapter 8.  I hit a perfect storm for a writer.

All in a week or two, I didn't feel well, my regular job blew up, and I got writer's block.  One of those things by itself wouldn't have thrown me so bad.  All of them together has slowed down writing like crazy.

The good news is that the audible version for Delvers 2 is processing and should be live soon!

Suggestions for new art?

I'm going to commission another round of new art.  Does anyone have any illustrations suggestions for book 2 or book 3?

What it Dhu


 

The two orbs began to speak, but were interrupted again by the arrival of two more newcomers.  One moment they were there, the next, Henry felt a pulling, a tugging, and suddenly a large, shaggy dog made of metal was standing next to him.  Aodh’s shoulder was now occupied by a bright yellow, glowing songbird.  Tony stared at it in wonder.

The two orbs goggled, and Gellab asked, “How did they get here?  This shouldn’...

Thank you for being a Patreon patron!  I'm intending to write SOO, but Delvers is just demanding to be written!



Deadlights

The winged woman pursed her lips and placed her hands on her hips.  The motion did interesting things to her chainmail covered...assets.  Henry felt like his thoughts were still kind of slow.  How in the world was he being distracted by tits while existing in such a weird situation?  Seriously, what was happening...

More angrybro reviews

I'm getting really tired of getting called an SJW, which is not even remotely accurate.

Guys, I appreciate if you've already left a review, but I don't have very many right now, and reviews like this one are bringing down my average really fast.

This is the last time I'll ask--I don't want to be annoying--but I would really appreciate it if everyone could drop by my story page on Amazon and leave a review.  I would really appreciate it.

Need help from Patrons.

Hey all,

I have a favor to ask and a bit of news.

First, I will be releasing the first chapter of Delvers 3 (Patreon only) some time tomorrow.

Second, I sort of knew people would leave nasty reviews and comments for including a gay character in my story, but each 1 star hurts a lot at this stage in the game.

I would really appreciate it if you guys could remember to leave me a review if you liked the book.  As an indie writer, I really depend on those reviews fo...
